Enhancing Survival
Through interventions and longitudinal evaluations of survivors, we are defining programs for enhancing quality of life after cancer treatment. Our research includes a focus on long-term and late effects of hematopoietic cell transplantation. We have developed online and other technology-integrated strategies for reaching survivors and providing for their needs whenever and wherever they may occur. With the Survivorship Program we are focusing on identifying health problems and quality of life concerns of adolescent and young adult cancer survivors.
